The Big Billion Days 2025 sale has started on Flipkart today. In this sale, smartphones of numerous top brands, like Apple and Samsung, are available at the lowest prices. In this time, the iPhone 16 series is facing the largest discounts. The company was continuously announcing the biggest offers on this range of devices even prior to the sale initiation, but the sale started and orders were made, but orders got cancelled.

The dreaded situation has finally come to pass. Following the cancellation of the orders, some users tweeted on X that they had ordered iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro models at much lower prices, but the company has since canceled their orders.

Indeed, the Flipkart Big Billion Days sale went live last night, prompting many customers to book the iPhone 16 (128GB) for just ₹51,999 and the iPhone 16 Pro (128GB) for ₹75,999. Last year's Pro model was even cheaper than the new iPhone 17 in this sale. Deals for Flipkart Plus and Black members went live on September 22nd.

The sale began, and people ordered iPhones, but many customers reported receiving cancellation notifications within hours of placing their orders, despite successful payment. Many of them have shared screenshots on X, in which the platform cites "Payment Failures," while customers say their payments were completed. However, Jagran cannot confirm any such claims.
